I had the vic 20 for Christmas when all friend got the 64 or speccy.
Awful underpowered computer.
but whats it like to get more games and is their lot of plugging in and un plugging because of the few ports this machine has.
Presumably the joystick with this is the same ('TheJoystick') one that can be bought to work with the A500 Mini? It's £19.99 on Amazon.
I was going to get the A500 but apparently the joypad that comes with it is rubbish so would need the joystick so this is tempting :/ (edited)
Edit* I just noticed there is a nice 8.5% TCB on this site.
Edit 2* No extra charge for NI, I've just bought. (edited)
